Quarantined Passengers Critical of Travis Air Force Base 'Camp Corona'

TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE (CBS Sacramento) — People inside the Travis Air Force Base Coronavirus quarantine are describing a poorly-planned operation they call "Camp Corona."

"We're surrounded by chainlink fences and there's armed guards outside," Graham said.
